What's so funny about going out with Johnny Carson?
YouTube ^ | Dyan Cannon

Posted on 07/19/2025 9:18:35 PM PDT by SmokingJoe

Dyan Cannon who was married briefly to Cary Grant and had his only child was on the Johnny Carson show. She said she knew Stanley Fimberg ( her second husband ) was the one for her the second time she had a date with him. So Carson asked her what was so different about Fimberg, since he Carson had gone on a couple of dates with her before too. That made her break into continuous laughter that didn't stop for quite a while. Wonder what was so funny about the idea of hooking up with Carson.

Very funny and less than a minute long.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Just compare Carson to the creep Colbert. Not even close.

That interview was actually fairly long. If remembering correctly, she stated her new one, she just knew was the one for her.

From what I understand, Carson had a great public persona, but he could be quite the angry jerk when the cameras were off.

The Dyan Cannon of 2025 is still bragging about all the men she had back in the 60s and 70s. Kind of an overaged Charo.
A little bit pathetic. Not that unusual though.
Until her passing, the late actress Rita Moreno was quite eager to talk about all the intimate fun she had with Marlon Brando. That was one of her favorite types of story from the past.

Well Cary Grant essentially just married her on his old age so he could have a child.
Never bothered with having children all his life, even though he was one of the most successful actors in Hollywood.
Funny to see childless old men go out there and hurry to have a child before they die.

Cannon is 88 and still alive and kicking.
Still pretty good looking even at 88.

People used to make that same mistake about George Burns, more than 20 years before he did die at an advanced age.
I always picture him dressed up and holding a Cuban cigar.
Henny Youngman type jokes.

For our anniversary my wife said “Take me some place I’ve never been before.” I said “Try the kitchen.”

Everyone knew that unless your name was a derivative Joan, JoAnn, or Joanna, you didn't have a shot with Carson!

I always thought Diane Cannon was just plain skanky looking.

According to her Wikipedia page and other sources, Dyan Cannon formerly identified as a born-again Christian, but has since stated that she is spiritual but not religious.

According to Yahoo News Canada, she holds a deep belief in the Almighty, but hesitates to align with a specific tradition. She emphasizes the importance of “Love” (capital L), citing the Bible’s message that love never fails as the foundation of her beliefs.

She has also been involved in a Christian revival group and has led religious services, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The Chattanoogan.com Breaking News reports that she founded a Bible study group in her home that grew to such proportions it had to move to a hotel. According to CNN, she discussed her faith in a 2001 interview with Larry King, sharing her journey from a Jewish upbringing to embracing a more personal understanding of spirituality. She also mentions that her father became a Christian.

More recently, Dyan Cannon’s Instagram indicates that she is involved in a podcast called “God’s Table Hollywood” with other women, suggesting a continued connection to discussions about faith and spirituality. It appears her spiritual journey is ongoing and not confined to a single religious label.
